Miami, Florida, is home to beautiful scenery and numerous Christian events.
According to The Miami Pursuit, a Christian movement, Miami, Florida ranks as the nation's second most unchurched city. Campus Crusade for Christ reports that South Florida has 60 colleges and a diverse community, providing outreach challenges. Despite these issues, Miami hosts numerous Christian events, including concerts, conferences and competitions, in various venues to reach beyond church sanctuaries and traditional worship services.
"Free Gospel Sundays"
The Adrienne Arscht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County holds "Free Gospel Sundays." The events feature many prominent gospel artists and local choirs. Performers have included CeCe Winans and Vickie Winans. According to the Center's website, patrons may reserve "First Access Passes" approximately four weeks before a performance. The free passes afford the patrons "first come-first serve" seating.
South Florida Gospel Music Awards
Since 2004, the Miami area has hosted the South Florida Gospel Music Awards, originally the Palm Beach Gospel Music Awards. This event draws nationally known and local artists, radio personalities, gospel music executives, public officials and corporate sponsors. More than an awards program, the gathering offers workshops and seminars and a "VIP Brunch," according to the website. Though the multi-day event takes place in Palm Beach, choirs and radio talent from Miami participate.
